Product Overview

The S7-200 TD devices (TD 200 and TD 200C) provide a low-cost human-machine interface(HMI), allowing an operator or user to interact with your application.

The TD devices allow you to configure a set of hierarchical user menus that allow you to provideadditional structure for the interaction with your application. You can also configure the TD deviceto display alarms or messages that are enabled by specific bits in the S7-200 CPU.

TipThe new TD devices provide additional functionality, such as the hierarchical user-definedmenus, yet remain fully compatible with projects that were created with earlier versions of theTD 200 (prior to TD 200 V3.0, which supported only the bit-enabled messages from theS7-200 CPU).

You can use a new TD 200 or TD 200C with an existing TD configuration without having tomodify the control program in the S7-200 CPU.

Figure 1-2 Standard Keypad Configuration for the TD Devices

Dividing Information into Screens and Bit-Enabled AlarmsAs shown in Figure 1-3, you can configure the TD device to display screens (which are initiated byoperator action) and bit-enabled alarms (which are generated by the S7-200 CPU).

- Screens: You can create screens that allow the operator (using the TD device) to initiate theinteraction with the S7-200 CPU. You can configure a user menu (up to 8 entries or groups)that provides a hierarchy for the screens. You can create up to 8 screens for each menuitem or group.

- Alarms: You can create alarm messages that allow the user program in the S7-200 CPU toinitiate interaction with the operator by displaying a message on the TD device.

During the configuration of the TD device, you also designate which type of message (screens oralarms) will be the default display mode for the TD device. After power-up, the TD device goes tothe default display mode. Also, the TD device returns to the default display mode after a period ofinactivity (if no buttons have been pressed for one minute).

Storing the Screens and Alarms in the Parameter BlockThe S7-200 CPU stores the ASCII text, embedded variables, and format information for thealarms and screens in a parameter block located in V memory. You use the TD 200 wizard toconfigure the starting address for the parameter block in V memory, and the TD 200 wizardallocates the memory required to store the information for the TD device.

If you configure more than one parameter block for the S7-200 CPU (with each parameter blockhaving a different range of addresses in V memory), you can connect several TD devices to thatone S7-200 CPU. You configure the V memory address for the specific parameter block for eachof the TD devices. (The Diagnostic Menu of the TD device provides a TD Setup command forspecifying the starting address of the parameter block.)


6

Displaying the Screens and Alarms on the TD DeviceWhen the operator uses the buttons on the TD device to select a screen, the TD device reads thealarms or screens in the parameter block (stored in V memory of the S7-200 CPU) and displaysthe appropriate screen or alarm.

When you configure an alarm, you also configure an alarm bit for enabling a specific alarm. Thelogic of your user program sets this alarm bit to display the alarm on the TD device. (When youcreate the text for the alarm, you also designate the alarm bit. If you configured an alarm to requireacknowledgement by an operator, that alarm also has an acknowledge bit.) The TD devicecontinuously polls the alarm bits to determine which alarms have been enabled.

To display an alarm on the TD device, your user program in the S7-200 CPU must first set thealarm bit for the specific alarm. When your user program sets one of the alarm bits, the TD devicethen reads the alarm bits in the parameter block in the S7-200 CPU and displays thecorresponding alarm.

Creating a Custom Faceplate for Your TD 200CWith the TD 200C, you can design a custom faceplate that incorporates up to 20 buttons (keys) ofany size, with varying shapes, colors, or fonts that can be layered onto any background image.You use the Keypad Designer to create the custom-designed layout for the keypad.

As shown in Figure 1-6, you use several applications to create a custom faceplate:

- Keypad Designer: Creates the layout and the configuration for the keypad

- Third-party graphics application: Designs the graphical appearance of the faceplate

- STEP 7--Micro/WIN (TD 200 wizard): Configures the parameter block for the TD 200C

- Word-processing application (optional): Prints multiple copies of the faceplate

Siemens provides a document file for Microsoft Word (TD200C_Faceplate.doc) that helpsyou to align the panel images for the perforations on the A4 blank faceplate material. Toopen this document, browse to the Templates subdirectory under the Keypad Designerapplication. For example:

Printing the Custom Faceplate for the TD 200CThe TD 200C ships with one blank overlay (envelope-size) for printing the faceplate. Thefaceplate overlay is constructed from durable, polyester material which has been designedespecially for use on HMI faceplates.

! You can print a single faceplate directly from the Keypad Designer on the envelope-sizedblank faceplate overlay.

! To print multiple faceplates, you can use the Microsoft Word template (provided online) thatensures your faceplate design is properly sized. You can print up to 3 faceplates onto theperforated A4-size blank overlay sheets.

Refer to Chapter 3 for specific information about printing the custom faceplate for the TD 200C.

TipThe faceplate material is specially treated on one side to accommodate printing with a laserprinter. The treated surface is up (or toward you) when you are holding the material with the cutcorner in the top right of the sheet.

Ensure that the material is correctly inserted into the laser printer so that the faceplate prints thereversed image onto the treated surface of the material. You must print a reversed-imageversion of the faceplate onto the overlay material.

Before printing your custom faceplate onto the blank overlay sheet, first test your design byprinting the faceplate onto regular paper. You can then temporarily use the paper overlay to testthe functionality of the design with your TD 200C.

Printer RequirementsTo print your custom-designed image onto the blank faceplate material, you must use a laserprinter that supports the following features:

! Paper size: The laser printer must be able to print on both the A4 (210 mm X 297 mm) andenvelope formats.

! Color: The laser printer must support color printing.

! Transparencies: The laser printer must support the printing of transparencies (or othernon-paper stock).

Ordering Additional Faceplate Overlay MaterialYou can order additional blank overlays in perforated A4-size sheets (10 sheets/package). Theoverlay material is especially designed for printing on a laser printer. The blank overlay sheetsalso allow you to utilize the services of professional printing vendors that specialize in laserprinting in order to create large quantities of high-quality faceplates.

Contact your local Siemens representative or distributor to purchase additional quantities of theoverlay material (order number: 6ES7 272--1AF00--7AA0).

Installing a Custom Faceplate for the TD 200CThe TD 200C ships with a blank faceplate (envelopesize) for creating a custom-designed faceplate.

The TD 200C does not ship with a faceplate attached.The front of the TD 200C is an adhesive surface(shipped with a protective paper) that allows you toattach your custom faceplate.

Refer to Chapter 3 for information about designing andprinting a custom faceplate.

The upper diagram of Figure 2-6 shows the dimensionsfor the faceplate of the TD 200C. Blank faceplatematerial is available in two sizes:

- Envelope size for printing a single faceplate

- A4 size (210 mm x 297 mm) for printing up to 3copies of the faceplate

You must cut the faceplate from the envelope-sizedmaterial, but the A4 material is perforated to allow youto remove the faceplates without cutting.

Use the following procedure to install your customfaceplate on the TD 200C:

1. As shown in Figure 2-6, remove the strip ofprotective paper on the left side of the TD 200Cto expose a strip of the adhesive.

2. Carefully align your custom faceplate on theentire TD 200C, and then seal the faceplate tothe exposed adhesive by pressing down on theleft side of the faceplate.

3. Carefully lift back the unadhered faceplate andremove the rest of the protective paper from theTD 200C.

4. Carefully position the faceplate onto theTD 200C. Firmly press the faceplate onto theadhesive as shown in Figure 2-6, taking care toremove any air bubbles that may have beentrapped underneath.

The TD 200C comes configured as a standard TD 200(with LEFT and RIGHT arrows, see Figure 1-2). Aftercreating and installing the custom faceplate on yourTD 200C, you must also download the TD configurationthat you created with both the Keypad Designer andthe TD 200 wizard.

- Chapter 3 describes the Keypad Designer.

- Chapter 4 describes the TD 200 wizard.

Connecting the TD/CPU Cable

CautionOperating the TD 200 with an ungrounded voltage source can damage the TD 200 device.

The TD 200 may only be connected to grounded voltage sources. Non-grounded operation cancause the TD 200 device to become damaged.

Always ensure that the voltage source for the TD 200 is properly grounded.

Both TD devices (TD 200 and TD 200C) can use the TD/CPU cable for communicating with theS7-200 CPU.

- You can connect the TD device directly to the S7-200 CPU, creating a one-to-one networkconfiguration. In this configuration, one TD device connects to one S7-200 CPU through theTD/CPU cable.

- You can connect multiple TD devices to multiple S7-200 CPUs over a network. TheTD device defaults to address 1 and attempts to communicate to a CPU at address 2.

For more information about connecting to multiple CPUs, see Appendix B. For informationabout changing the default addresses in the TD device, see Chapter 5.

If you require a longer cable (>2.5 m) to connect the TD device to the S7-200 CPU, usePROFIBUS components for the network connection. Refer to the SINEC IK10 Catalog.

Supplying Power for the TD DeviceThe S7-200 CPU uses the TD/CPU cable to provide power to the TD device. Use this type ofpower supply when the distance between the TD device and the S7-200 CPU is less than 2.5 m(the length of the TD/CPU cable).

TipIf the distance between the TD device and the S7-200 CPU is greater than 2.5 m, use anexternal 24 VDC power supply. The TD device ships with an power connector that allows you toconnect an optional external power supply to the TD device.

If you require a longer cable (greater than 2.5 m) to connect the TD device to the S7-200 CPU,use PROFIBUS components for the network connection. Refer to the SINEC IK10 Catalog.

Refer to Appendix B for information about using the TD device on a network.

As shown in Figure 2-7, the TD device provides two options for providing power:

- The TD/CPU cable allows the S7-200CPU to provide power to the TD deviceover the communications port.

For information about the TD/CPU cableand the communications port, refer toAppendix B.

- You can connect the TD device to anexternal power supply.

The TD device requires 120 mA at24 VDC to operate. An optional powerconnector is provided with the TD device. +24 VDC0V

Establishing a Connection for Your TD 200CAs described in Chapter 4, you use the TD 200 wizard of STEP 7--Micro/WIN to configure thescreens, alarms, languages, and custom keypad layout for the TD 200C. The S7-200 CPU storesthis information in a parameter block (V memory).

The TD 200C ships with a default configurationand is set to communicate at a rate of 9600 baud.In order to read the parameter block, The TD 200Cmust communicate with the S7-200 CPU.

You must configure your TD 200C to communicateat the same baud rate as your S7-200 CPU.

Until the TD 200C successfully connects to theS7-200 CPU and reads the parameter block, theTD 200C remains configured for the standard TDkeypad. (See Figure 2-8.)

To change the baud rate of your TD 200C, you usethe ESC and ENTER buttons to navigate to theDiagnostic Menu and change the TD Setupparameters. (See Chapter 5.) Because theTD 200C ships with no faceplate attached, it mayb diffi l i l ESC ENTER

Using the Keypad Designer to Createa Custom Faceplate for Your TD 200C

With the TD 200C, you can design a custom keypad that incorporates up to 20 buttons (keys) ofany size, with varying shapes, colors, or fonts that can be layered onto any background image.

The Keypad Designer application allows you to create a custom-designed layout for the keypad ofthe TD 200C and includes samples and templates in the following directories:

- Sample bitmaps for buttons and backgrounds:

C:/Program Files/Siemens/TD Keypad Designer/Images

- Sample projects:

C:/Program Files/Siemens/TD Keypad Designer/Projects

- Sample template (for printing multiple copies of the faceplate):


This chapter guides you through the tasks required for creating the layout for the keypad, creatingthe configuration file for the keypad, and printing the faceplate for the TD 200C.

You use the configuration file when you are configuring the TD 200C with the TD 200 wizard ofSTEP 7--Micro/WIN. Refer to Chapter 4 for information about the TD 200 wizard.

Adding Buttons to the KeypadThe TD 200C allows you relative freedom when designing your keypad:

- You can configure up to 20 buttons on thekeypad.

- You can vary the size and the location ofthe buttons.

- You can define the functionality for eachbutton.

The Keypad Designer provides a grid that alignsthe location of the buttons with the physical

p ykeypad of the TD 200C. Figure 3-5 Adding the Button to the Keypad

TipTypically, your keypad design should always include buttons with the following functions: Enter,Escape, Up Arrow, and Down Arrow. These functions allow you to access the pre-configuredmenus and functions of the TD 200C.

Inserting a ButtonTo add a button to the keypad grid:

1. Click the Draw Button icon.

2. Move the cursor over the grid.

3. Move the cursor (and button) intoposition on the keypad grid.

4. Hold down the left mouse buttonand drag the cursor to adjust thesize and shape of the button.

5. Release the mouse button to insertthe button onto the keypad. Figure 3-6 Adding a Button

After you have inserted the button onto the keypad grid, you can relocate the button by dragging itto a new location on the grid. However, you cannot resize the button.

Modifying the Shape of a ButtonThe Keypad Designer provides two methods for modifying the shape of a button:

- Changing the size or shape of a button by adding a second button on top of the first button.

- Erasing a portion of the button

Extending the Shape of a ButtonYou cannot resize a button that has been inserted onto the keypad grid. You can, however, inserta second button on top of the first button to create a new size for the button. To change only thesize of the button, the new button must completely cover the first button.

As shown in Figure 3-7, adding a secondbutton also allows you to create buttons ofnon-rectangular shape (combining theshapes of both buttons).

When you insert the second button,ensure that the cursor is within theboundaries of the first button.

Figure 3-7 Extending the Shape of a Button


24

Erasing an Area of the ButtonYou can change the shape of the buttonby clicking the Erase Button icon.

As shown in Figure 3-8, the KeypadDesigner alerts you if the shape of thebutton is invalid.

To delete the entire button, select thebutton and press the Delete key.

Exporting the Keypad Layout to a Graphics ApplicationAfter you have configured the buttons on the keypad, you can create the graphical representationfor the faceplate. You use any third-party graphics application to add colors, lines and otherartwork to the panel design.

The Keypad Designer exports the layout of the buttons as a bitmap file (*.bmp) that you edit withthe graphics application.

As shown in Figure 3-12, the button templateprovides a bitmap image of the layout of thekeypad that you can use with your graphicalapplication to position, size and align thegraphical elements of your faceplate design.These elements can include logotype, text, orother images.

The Keypad Designer allows you to export thelayout of the buttons into your graphicsapplication. Use the File > Export >ButtonTemplate to File menu command to create abitmap file (*.bmp) that you insert into thegraphics application.

After you customize the layout (addingbackground image, colors, buttons or logotype),you save the file as a bitmap (*.bmp). This bitmapbecomes the panel image for the KeypadDesigner.

Adding a Panel Image to the FaceplateUsing your own graphics application, you createthe following graphical elements for the faceplateof the TD 200C:

- Button images

- Background image or color scheme

- Text (for the buttons or the background)

- Logotypes (and other images or text)

You are not required to use square buttons.However, you must ensure that your buttondesign covers the area of the button as defined inthe button template.

Importing a Panel ImageWhen you have completed the graphical designof panel image for the faceplate, you import thepanel image back into the Keypad Designer.

After you open your keypad project (*.td2), usethe File > Import >Panel Image from File menucommand to select the bitmap file that youcreated with your graphics application.

Figure 3-14 Keypad with a Panel Image

TipWhen you design your faceplate, you can create the bitmap with any resolution. However, thesize of the background image for the TD 200C must exactly match the following dimensions:

H Width: 137 mm (+/-- 0.15 mm) (5.42 inches)

H Height: 65.7 mm (+/-- 0.15 mm) (2.58 inches)

If your faceplate design does not match these dimensions, the Keypad Designer alerts youbefore importing the panel image. If you import a panel image with incorrect dimensions, theKeypad Designer resizes your panel image, which could distort the appearance of yourfaceplate design.


28

Saving the Keypad to a TD Configuration FileWhen you save the keypad, you create a TD configuration file (*.td2). This file contains theinformation about the buttons on the keypad:

- Number of buttons

- Location and sizes of the buttons

- Names of the buttons

- Functions assigned to the buttons

Use the File > Save or File > Save As menucommand to save the configuration of thekeypad.

The TD 200 Wizard uses this information forconfiguring the TD 200C. See Chapter 4 for moreinformation.

Figure 3-15 Saving the TD Configuration File

TipThe Keypad Designer allows you to save invalid or incomplete configurations. This allows youto save interim versions of your work. However, always ensure that the final configuration of thekeypad is valid and complete before using the configuration file (*.td2) with the TD 200 wizard.

Reversing the Panel ImageThe Reverse Panel Image option only affects the way that the faceplate prints. It does not changethe layout of the keypad.

- Reversing the panel image (seeFigure 3-16) orients the side of thefaceplate with the ink from the printingprocess towards the TD 200C. Theoperator then touches only the plasticmembrane and not the ink when pressing abutton. Always reverse the panel imagewhen printing on the blank faceplatematerial.

- Not reversing the panel image (seeFigure 3 17) prints the faceplate so that the

Figure 3-16 Reversed Panel Image

Figure 3-17) prints the faceplate so that theelements can be read correctly. Use thenon-reversed image when you print apaper copy of the faceplate for review.

To turn the Reverse Panel Image option on or off,select the File > Export > Reverse Panel Imagemenu command. A check mark notifies you thatthis function is selected.

Figure 3-17 Non-Reversed Panel Image


29

Printing the FaceplateTo print your custom-designed image onto the blank faceplate material, you must use a laserprinter that supports printing transparency material in both the A4 and envelope formats and alsosupports color printing.

! You can print a single faceplate directly from the Keypad Designer on the envelope-sizedblank faceplate overlay (shipped with the TD 200C).

! To print multiple faceplates, you can use the Microsoft Word template that ensures yourfaceplate design is properly sized. You can print up to 3 faceplates onto the perforatedA4-size blank overlay sheets.

TipThe faceplate material is specially treated on one side to accommodate printing with a laserprinter. The treated surface is up (or toward you) when you are holding the material with the cutcorner in the top right of the sheet.

Ensure that the material is correctly inserted into the laser printer so that the faceplate prints thereversed image onto the treated surface of the material. You must print a reversed-imageversion of the faceplate onto the overlay material.

Before printing your custom faceplate onto the blank overlay sheet, first test your design byprinting the faceplate onto regular paper. You can then temporarily use the paper overlay to testthe functionality of the design with your TD 200C.

Using the blank overlay sheets also allows you tocreate large quantities of high-quality faceplatesby utilizing the professional printing services ofshops that specialize in laser printing.

You can order additional blank overlays inperforated A4-size sheets (10 sheets/package).The overlay material is especially designed forprinting with laser printers.

The blank faceplate material is available in twosizes:

! Envelope size for printing a singlefaceplate: The Keypad Designer printsregistration lines for trimming the faceplateto the correct dimensions. (Use a metalstraight edge and a knife or razor blade toensure accurate and straight cuts.) TheTD 200C ships with a single blankfaceplate.

! A4 size (210 mm x 297 mm) for printing upto 3 copies of the faceplate: You can usethe Microsoft Word template to print thefaceplate onto perforated areas of thematerial. You do not have to cut thefaceplates from the material. Order theseA4 sheets from your Siemens distributor.

TipBefore attempting to print a custom faceplate, ensure that both the printer and theword-processing application are set to the correct paper size:

H Single-copy sheet: Set both the printer and word-processing application to print onEnvelope.

H Multiple-copy A4 sheet: Set both the printer and the word-processing application to print onA4-size paper.

Your computer and your laser printer may have other settings that cause the printer to scale thefaceplate to an incorrect size. Always first print a test copy on paper before printing yourfaceplate onto the blank material.

Printing a Single Faceplate from the Keypad DesignerYou can print individual faceplates directly from theKeypad Designer:

1. Ensure that the laser printer is set to printenvelopes.

2. Insert the envelope-size faceplate material intothe tray.

3. Select the File > Print menu command

4. Select the laser printer and click OK.

5. Using the cut lines and a paper cutter, cut thefaceplate from the material.

Cut Lines

pFigure 3-19 Printing a Single Faceplate

TipFor best results use a razor-blade cutting knife with a metal straight edge to cut the faceplatefrom the material. You can also use a high-quality paper cutter. Be especially careful when usingscissors or similar tools. Scissors are more likely to stretch or tear the material, causing irregularedges for the faceplate.

Printing the Faceplate from a Word-Processing ApplicationYou use a word-processing application (such as Microsoft Word) to print multiple copies of thefaceplate onto A4-size blank faceplate material. After you export the panel image of the faceplateinto a document, you adjust the location of the panel images and print the document.

TipSiemens provides a document file for Microsoft Word (TD200C_Faceplate.doc) that helps you toalign the panel images for the perforations on the A4 material. To open this document, browse tothe Templates subdirectory under the Keypad Designer application. For example:

Before printing the faceplate onto the blank faceplatematerial, you must ensure that the document and theprinter settings are both set to print on A4 paper. Also,ensure that the laser printer itself is configured to printA4 paper.

After you print the faceplate document, you use theperforations to remove the faceplates from the sheet.

To export the panel image to your word-processingapplication:

1. Open your word-processing application (forexample, Microsoft Word) and open the template

A4 FaceplateMaterial

Perforated Areas

example, Microsoft Word) and open the templatefile: TD200C_Faceplate.doc Figure 3-20 Printing Multiple Faceplates

2. Open the Keypad Designer.

3. In the Keypad Designer, select the File > Export > Panel Image to File menu command tocreate a bitmap file that you insert into the word-processing application.

4. Insert the panel image into the document (TD200C_Faceplate.doc) by using theword-processing application to insert the bitmap file (*.bmp) that you created with theKeypad Designer.

5. After inserting the panel image into the document, save the document (using the File >Save As menu command of the word-processing application).

With the panel images saved in your document, you can print the document to your laser printer.

TipBefore printing the panel image onto the blank faceplate material, first test your design byprinting the faceplate onto regular A4 paper.

Installing the Printed Faceplate onto the TD 200CUse the following procedure to install your faceplate onthe TD 200C:

1. As shown in Figure 3-21, remove the strip ofprotective paper on the left side of the TD 200Cto expose a strip of the adhesive.

2. Carefully align your custom faceplate on theentire TD 200C, and then seal the faceplate tothe exposed adhesive by pressing down on theleft side of the faceplate.

3. Carefully lift back the unadhered faceplate andremove the rest of the protective paper from theTD 200C.

4. Carefully position the faceplate onto theTD 200C. Firmly press the faceplate onto theadhesive, taking care to remove any air bubblesthat may have been trapped underneath.

Using the TD 200 Wizard to Configurethe S7-200 CPU for the TD Device

You do not configure or program the TD device. The TD 200 wizard creates a parameter blockthat stores the configuration, screens and alarms for the TD device. The S7-200 CPU stores theparameter block in V memory. At power-up, the TD device reads the parameter block from theS7-200 CPU.

You use the TD 200 wizard of STEP 7--Micro/WIN to perform the following tasks:

- Configuring the parameters for the TD device

- Creating the screens and alarms to be displayed on the TD device

- Creating the language sets for the TD device

- Assigning the V memory address for the parameter block

TipTo connect your TD device to a network, you use the Diagnostic Menu of the TD device to setup the network addresses, baud rate and other parameters. Refer to Chapter 5.

Overview of the Configuration TasksThe S7-200 CPU stores the configuration data for the TD device, including the screens andalarms, into a parameter block (located in V memory). The TD 200 wizard creates the parameterblock. When you download your project (user program and data block) to the S7-200 CPU, youalso download the parameter block as part of the data block.

You do not configure or program the TD device. At power-up, the TD device reads the parameterblock from the S7-200 CPU.

As shown in Figure 4-1, you use the TD 200 wizard of STEP 7--Micro/WIN to create the parameterblock for both TD devices (TD 200 and TD 200C). Figure 4-2 shows the sequence of the tasksrequired for configuring the parameters of the TD device.

Figure 4-7 Enabling the CPU Functions for the TD 200C


39

Selecting a Password for the TD DeviceSelecting a password for the TD device helps you to protect the security of your process orapplication. By enabling a four-digit password (from 0000 to 9999), you can control access to theS7-200 CPU by requiring that an operator enter the password before editing variables from theTD device.

TipThe TD password affects only the ability of an operator to use the TD device for certainfunctions.

If your S7-200 CPU is configured to require a password, the operator must enter the CPUpassword. The TD password is used in addition to the CPU password.

Selecting the Update Rate for the TD DeviceYou can select how often the TD device performs a read operation to update the information fromthe S7-200 CPU. You can select from “As fast as possible” to “Every 15 seconds” (in one-secondincrements).

Selecting the Language and the Character Set

TipWhen you create multiple language sets, the TD 200 wizard copies the alarms and screensfrom the primary language set to the other language set. You then edit the screens and alarmsto translate the text displayed for the new language set.

If you need to modify the screens or messages (such as to add a new variable or to add a newalarm), you must edit the primary language. The TD 200 wizard copies these changes to theother language sets.

The TD 200 wizard only allows you to change the text in the other language sets.

The TD 200 wizard allows you to select the language for the menus and prompts of theTD device. This selection does not affect the language setting for the screens or alarms that youenter. You select a character set that supports the language of the text that you enter for thescreens and alarms. (If the character set does not match the Windows character set, the TD 200wizard may not display the characters correctly. The TD device displays these characterscorrectly.)

- Select the language for thepreconfigured menus andprompts displayed by theTD device.

The TD device supportsEnglish, French, German,Italian, Simplified Chinese, andSpanish

- Select the character set fordisplaying your text.

Refer to Appendix A fordescriptions of the charactersets supported by theTD device.

Figure 4-8 Localizing the TD Device

These settings define a language set for the TD device. The TD 200 wizard also provides a seriesof dialogs for copying the alarms and screens to create additional language sets. For eachlanguage set, you select the language and the character set.


40

Loading a Custom Keypad (TD 200C Only)The TD 200C allows you to create a custom keypad. As described in Chapter 3,you can insert upto 20 buttons onto the keypad. The Keypad Designer saves this configuration to a file (*.td2).

To load the keypad configuration file(*.td2) into the TD 200 wizard:

1. Select the option for using acustom keypad created with theKeypad Designer. (Find thischeck box in the Options area ofthe Configure Keypad Buttonsdialog. See Figure 4-9.)

2. Browse to the keypadconfiguration file (*.td2) that youcreated with the KeypadDesigner.

The TD 200 wizard loads the keypadconfiguration file and updates thetable of buttons and the buttontable of buttons and the buttonsymbols. Figure 4-9 Configuring the Functions for the Buttons

The TD 200 wizard lists only those buttons that you had defined with the Set Bit functionality whenyou created the buttons with the Keypad Designer.

Configuring the Buttons on the KeypadAs shown in Figure 4-9, the Configure Keypad Buttons dialog allows you to select a symbol nameand an action for each of the configurable buttons on the TD device.

- The standard TD keypad provides 4 configurable buttons and a SHIFT button that can beconfigured for up to 8 bits in the S7-200 CPU.

- The TD 200C can be configured for up to 20 configurable buttons.

TipThe Configure Keypad Buttons dialog of the TD 200 wizard displays only those buttons that canset bits in the S7-200 CPU. The TD 200 wizard does not list the buttons with other functionality,such as ESC or SHIFT.

The symbols that you assign to the buttons on the keypad allow the logic of your user program inthe S7-200 CPU to interact with the TD device. (The TD 200 wizard suggests a symbol for thesebuttons. You can accept the recommendation or enter a new symbol for the button.)

For each button, you configure the type of action:

- Set bit: When you press the button on the TD device, the S7-200 CPU sets this bit on. Thebit stays on until the logic of your user program in the S7-200 CPU resets the bit.

- Momentary contact: When you press the button on the TD device, the S7-200 CPU setsthis bit on for as long as you press the button on the TD device, then turns the bit off whenyou stop pressing the button.


41

Configuring the Screens for the TD DeviceThe TD device supports a set of user-defined screens and a user menu. Screens allow theoperator (using the TD device) to initiate the interaction with the S7-200 CPU.

- User menu: Provides a hierarchy for switching between groups of screens. You configureup to 8 entries on the user menu.

- Screens: You create up to 8 screens for each entry (or group) on the user menu.

The TD device displays the screens and the itemson the user menu in the order that you configurethem.

If you configure both alarms and screens, you alsodesignate the default display mode for theTD device.

The operator uses the buttons on the keypad tonavigate through the user menu or the screens thatyou configured.

Figure 4-11 shows the buttons that an operatorcould use to navigate from a user menu to thescreens associated with that item in the menu.

After you have configured the TD device, you can configure the screens and the user menu. Clickthe screen icon to start creating the user menu for the screens. See Figure 4-12.

For the user menu, you perform the following tasks:

- Create the groups (names) to bedisplayed on the user menu

- Determine the sequence of thegroups listed on the user menu

For the screens, you perform thefollowing tasks:

- Add the screens to each group(on the user menu)

- Create the text message (andadd variables) for each screen

- Add icons to the text message(TD 200C only)

- Determine the sequence of thescreens for each groupg p

Figure 4-12 Selecting the Screen Configuration Tasks

Creating the User MenuThe process for creating the screens and user menu is not sequential: You can choose to enterthe screens for each individual group before creating the next group, or you can enter all of thegroups for the user menu before creating any of the screens.

To configure the user menu, you enter the names for each group of screens. See Figure 4-13. TheTD 200 wizard displays a green ENTER icon (and blue arrow) to show which group is selected.

To create the screens associated witha group on the user menu:

1. Move the cursor to the box thatdesignates the group on theuser menu.

2. Click the Add Screen button.

3. Create the message for thescreen.

4. Click the Add Screen button tocreate the other screens in thisgroup.

Use the Move Choice Up and MoveChoice Down buttons to change thesequence of the groups listed on theuser menuuser menu. Figure 4-13 Defining the User Menu


43

Creating the Text for a ScreenYour screen message can contain thefollowing elements:

- Text: Enter your text in thegreen area that represents thetext display area of theTD device

- Icons (optional): Click the iconsin the toolbar to insert the iconinto the text message

Icons are available only for theTD 200C.

- Variable data (optional): Clickthe Insert PLC Data button toembed a variable into the textmessage

You can designate the screen to bethe default display.

Figure 4-14 Creating the Message for a Screen

Embedding a Variable into the Text of a ScreenYou can embed a variable data field into the text of the screen. To open the Insert PLC Datadialog, move the cursor to the location for the variable in your text and click the Insert PLC Databutton. As shown in Figure 4-15, you enter the following information:

- V memory address and size:

-- VW or VD: Memory address for variable data (the range of addresses is determinedby the model of your S7-200 CPU)

-- VB: Memory address for a String (cannot exceed 20 characters)

- Format: signed or unsigned

- Resolution (number of digits tothe right of the decimal): Up to 7

The TD device rounds a realnumber to the specified decimalplace. For example, if the realnumber value is 123.456 andyou select 2 digits to the right ofthe decimal, the TD 200displays this value as: 123.46

Figure 4-15 Inserting PLC Data

TipRefer to the SIMATIC S7-200 Programmable Controller System Manual for information aboutthe String data type or for the memory addresses supported by the S7-200 CPU.


44

You can also allow the operator to modify the data stored at this memory location in theS7-200 CPU.

- You can require the operator enter the TD password before editing the variable. (You musthave enabled password-protection for the TD device.)

- You can configure the cursor to jump to the variable field.

- You can define a symbolic name for the variable. You use the symbolic name to access thisdata with your user program.

Clicking OK inserts the variable into the text of the screen. The TD 200 wizard inserts a block of4 characters to show the presence of the variable. The value to be displayed for the variable isright-justified at that location (anchored to the right-most character).

Data values are always right justified to the right-most character of an embedded variable. As adata value grows in magnitude, it utilizes more spaces to the left of the anchor point and canoverwrite the text characters. Always provide sufficient space between the end of your text andthe anchor point to allow for the expected range of the data value.

TipThe actual number of characters used to display a value varies with the size of the value. Tohelp calculate the number of characters required for displaying the value of the variable, see theexamples listed in Table 4-1.

The TD device displays all values as decimal numbers. Positive signed values are displayedwithout a sign, and negative signed values are displayed with a leading minus sign. Unsignedvalues are displayed without a sign. A leading zero is used for all fractional numbers (for example,0.5). Real numbers are displayed with the number of decimal places you specify. The value isrounded to the specified decimal place.

Configuring the AlarmsAlarms allow the user program in the S7-200 CPU to initiate interaction with the operator bydisplaying an alarm message on the TD device. When your user program sets an alarm bit, theS7-200 CPU writes the text for the alarm to the TD device.

Figure 4-16 lists the key tasks for creating alarms.You configure the following information for eachalarm:

- Number of alarms (up to 80) to be configuredfor the TD device

- Text message for the individual alarms

- Priority for the alarms is determined by thesequence in which you configure the alarms:

-- The first alarm has the highest priority

-- The last alarm has the lowest priority

- Acknowledgement (if required)

Determining the Type of Operator-Interaction for an AlarmThe TD 200 wizard allows you to determine the type interaction required by the operator for analarm:

- Acknowledgement is not required, and editing of variables is not allowed:

The TD device displays the alarm. The alarm can contain variables that are updated at theupdate rate of the TD device, but ENTER has no function because the alarm does notcontain any editable variable. Pressing ESC returns to the main menu. An up or down arrowdisplayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarms have been enabled. Theoperator can use the UP or DOWN arrows to scroll through the other alarms.

The TD device does not reset the alarm bit for this type of alarm. To remove this alarm fromthe TD device, you must include logic in your user program to reset the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is not required, but Editing of variables is required:

The TD device displays the alarm and waits for the operator to edit the value of theembedded variable. If you configured the alarm for automatic editing, the TD device placesthe cursor to the right-most character of the variable. Pressing ESC returns to the mainmenu. An up or down arrow displayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarmshave been enabled. The operator can use the UP or DOWN arrows to scroll through theother alarms.

After modifing the value for the embedded variable, the operator presses ENTER. TheTD device then moves the cursor to the next editable variable. Pressing ENTER for the lasteditable variable of an alarm writes the new values for the variables to the S7-200 CPU.The TD device resets the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is required, but editing of variables is not allowed:

If you configured the alarm to require acknowledgement, the TD device alerts the operatorin the manner that you selected. If the alarm contains a variable, the TD device updates thisvalue at the rate of the TD device. An up or down arrow displayed with the alarm signalsthat higher or lower alarms have been enabled, but the operator must first acknowledge thisalarm before scrolling to another alarm.

When the operator acknowledges the alarm (by pressing ENTER), the TD device sets theacknowledge bit for the alarm and resets the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is required, and Editing of variables is also required:

If you configured the alarm to require acknowledgement, the TD device alerts the operatorin the manner that you selected. If the alarm contains a variable, the TD device updates thisvalue at the rate of the TD device. If you configured the alarm for automatic editing, theTD device places the cursor to the right-most character of the variable. An up or down arrowdisplayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarms have been enabled, but theoperator must first acknowledge this alarm before scrolling to another alarm.

After modifing the value for the embedded variable, the operator presses ENTER. TheTD device then moves the cursor to the next editable variable. Pressing ENTER for the lasteditable variable of an alarm writes the new values for the variables to the S7-200 CPU.The TD device sets the acknowledge bit for the alarm and resets the alarm bit.

Setting the Default Display Mode and Alarm ParametersThe TD device supports alarms that are displayed under program control. After you haveconfigured the TD device, you can configure the alarms. When you configure the alarms, you alsoselect either screens (default) or alarms as the default display mode for the TD device.

Click the Alarms icon to start creatingthe user menu for the screens. Asshown in Figure 4-18, you select thefollowing information:

- Default display mode: Selecteither alarms or screens as tehdefault display mode

- Size of the alarms: Select either20 characters or 40 characters(For Chinese characters, selecteither one row or two rows oftext)

- Announcement of the alarm:Select either to display ablinking icon or to automaticallydisplay the alarmdisplay the alarm

Figure 4-18 Configuring the Alarm Options

TipThe TD device supports up to 80 alarms. The priority for the alarms is determined sequentially,from the first alarm (highest priority) to the last (lowest priority).

Entering the Text for an AlarmClicking Next displays the Alarms dialog. (See Figure 4-19.) You can select a symbolic name forthe alarm. The user program uses the symbolic name to enable (and display) the alarm. Click theNew Alarm button to create the alarm message. Your alarm message can contain the followingelements:

- Text: Enter your text in the green area that represents the text display area of theTD device

- Icons (optional, TD 200C only):Click the icons in the toolbar toinsert the icon into the textmessage

- Variable data (optional): Clickthe Insert PLC Data button toembed a variable into the textmessage

To ensure that important alarms areacknowledged by an operator, youcan configure the alarm to requireacknowledgement.

You select the symbolic name for theacknowledgement bit for the alarm.The user program uses this symbolicname to report that the alarm hasbeen acknowledged.

To acknowledge an alarm with theTD device, the operator selects thealarm and presses ENTER.

Figure 4-19 Creating the Text for an Alarm


48

Embedding a Variable into the Text of an AlarmYou can embed a variable data field into the text of the alarm. To embed a variable, move thecursor to the location for the variable in your text and click the Insert PLC Data button. As shownin Figure 4-20, you enter the following information:

- V memory address and size:

-- VW or VD: Memory address for variable data (the range of addresses is determinedby the model of your S7-200 CPU)

-- VB: Memory address for a String (cannot exceed 20 characters)

- Format: signed or unsigned

- Resolution (number of digits tothe right of the decimal): Up to 7

The TD device rounds a realnumber to the specified decimalplace. For example, if the realnumber value is 123.456 andyou select 2 digits to the right ofthe decimal, the TD 200displays this value as: 123.46

Figure 4-20 Inserting a Variable into the Text of an Alarm

TipRefer to the SIMATIC S7-200 Programmable Controller System Manual for information aboutthe String data type or for the memory addresses supported by the S7-200 CPU.

You can also allow the operator to modify the data stored at this memory location in theS7-200 CPU.

- You can require the operator enter the TD password before editing the variable. (You musthave enabled password-protection for the TD device.)

- You can configure the cursor to jump to the variable field.

- You can define a symbolic name for the variable. You use the symbolic name to access thisdata with your user program.

Clicking OK inserts the variable into the text of the alarm. The TD 200 wizard inserts a block of4 characters to show the presence of the variable. The value to be displayed for the variable isright-justified at that location (anchored to the right-most character).

Data values are always right justified to the right-most character of an embedded variable. As adata value grows in magnitude, it utilizes more spaces to the left of the anchor point and canoverwrite the text characters. Always provide sufficient space between the end of your text andthe anchor point to allow for the expected range of the data value.

TipThe actual number of characters used to display a value varies with the size of the value. Tohelp calculate the number of characters required for displaying the value of the variable, see theexamples listed in Table 4-2.


49

The TD device displays all values as decimal numbers. Positive signed values are displayedwithout a sign, and negative signed values are displayed with a leading minus sign. Unsignedvalues are displayed without a sign. A leading zero is used for all fractional numbers (for example,0.5). Real numbers are displayed with the number of decimal places you specify. The value isrounded to the specified decimal place.

Configuring the Language Sets for the TD DeviceThe TD 200 wizard allows you to configure multiple language sets for your TD device, includingnot only the menus and prompts, but also for the alarms and screens. (The TD 200 wizard copiesthe alarms and screens that you have configured into the language set, but you must manuallyenter the translated text for each screen or alarm.)

For each language set, you select the following information:

- Language for the prompts andmenus

- Character set

- Identifier

You also select which of the languagesets is the primary language for theTD device.

Language Sets

Define the languages sets:

H Select the language for the prompts andmenus

H Select the character set

n

Figure 4-21 Configuring the Languages for the TD Device

TipWhen you create multiple language sets, the TD 200 wizard copies the alarms and screensfrom the primary language set to the other language set. You then edit the screens and alarmsto translate the text displayed for the new language set.

If you need to modify the screens or messages (such as to add a new variable or to add a newalarm), you must edit the primary language. The TD 200 wizard copies these changes to theother language sets.

The TD 200 wizard only allows you to change the text in the other language sets.

After you have configured the alarms and screens for one language set, you can add a newlanguage set:

1. Click the icon to start configuringthe language sets for theTD device.

2. Add a new language byselecting New Language Set.

3. Select an existing language setto be the source for the newlanguage set.

4. (Optional) Select the option forprimary language to configurethe new language as the defaultlanguage set for the TD device.

5. Click the Next button to displaythe Localize Display dialog.

Figure 4-22 Adding a Language


51

The Localize dialog configures the menus and character set for the TD device:

1. Select the language for theprompts and menus of theTD device.

2. Select the character set for thetext.

3. Enter the name to be displayedon the TD device for thislanguage set.

After you click the Next button, theTD 200 wizard copies all of thescreens and alarms from the selectedlanguage set to the new language set.

Figure 4-23 Localizing the Display

Notes for Using the Simplified Chinese Character Set

TipThe Simplified Chinese character set requires a Chinese version of Windows or a Chineseemulator to properly display Chinese characters in the TD 200 wizard. You must start theChinese emulator before you start the STEP 7--Micro/WIN software.

You can display up to 20 single-byte characters per line of your message. Because SimplifiedChinese uses double-byte characters, you can display up to 10 double-byte characters per line fora message in Chinese.

Some Latin 1 characters are available from the Simplified Chinese character set. Depending onyour keyboard and/ or emulator, some of these Latin 1 characters may be formatted as single-bytecharacters instead of the double-byte characters like the Simplified Chinese characters. If you usea mixture of single-byte and double-byte characters in a message, remember that the space nextto a single-byte character can only be filled by either another single-byte character or an emptyspace.

The TD 200 wizard displays 10 double-byte character places for the text of a screen or alarm. Youcan fit any of the following combinations into a character place:

- 1 double-byte character

- 2 single-byte characters

- 1 single-byte character and 1 single-byte blank

You cannot fit one single-byte character plus one double-byte character in a character place.


52

Assigning the V Memory Address for the Parameter BlockThe TD 200 wizard creates the parameter block that you download to the S7-200 CPU with youruser program. The parameter block includes the configuration data for the TD device and anyscreens and alarms that you created.

The TD 200 wizard calculates theamount of memory required for theparameter block and suggests astarting address in V memory.

The default location for the parameterblock is VB0.

Parameter Block Address

Define the address of the parameter block(V memory)

n

Figure 4-24 Assigning the Address of the Parameter Block

Finishing the Configuration for the TD DeviceAfter you complete the configuration for your TD device, the TD 200 wizard displays a summarydialog. (See Figure 4-25.)

If you enter a name for the TDconfiguration, STEP 7--Micro/WINcreates an entry in the project tree forthe TD configuration.

STEP 7--Micro/WIN also creates thefollowing subroutines:

- TD_CTRL_x (where x is theTD configuration number)

This subroutine ensures that allupdates for the TD device (suchas alarms or changing thelanguage setting) occurimmediately.

Your user program should useSM0.0 to call this subroutineSM0.0 to call this subroutineevery scan. Figure 4-25 Summary Dialog

- TD_ALM_x (where x is the TD configuration number)

Your user program uses this subroutine to call the alarm by the symbolic name (configuredby the TD wizard). This subroutine requires the S7-200 Symbol Table.

Using the TD Device to Access Screens and AlarmsBoth the TD 200 and the TD 200C allow you to structure information as either screens orbit-enabled alarm messages, and both TD devices support menu-driven hierarchies. You use thebuttons of the keypad of the TD device to navigate through the screens and menus:

- TD 200: Uses the standard TD keypad.

- TD 200C: Allows you to change the configuration and use your own custom-designedkeypad. (If there is no custom configuration, the TD 200C defaults to the standardTD keypad configuration.)

TipFor more information about configuring the functionality of the buttons on the keypad:

H Chapter 4 provides information about configuring the buttons for both the TD 200 andTD 200C. The TD configuration is downloaded to the S7-200 CPU with your user program.

H Chapter 3 provides information about creating a custom keypad layout for the TD 200C andassigning specific functionality for each button. (You then integrate the custom keypad withthe screens and alarm messages as described in Chapter 4.)

As shown in Figure 5-1, the standard TD keypadprovides the following buttons:

- ENTER and Escape (ESC) buttons:

-- ENTER selects a menu item orconfirms a value.

-- ESC exits from a menu or cancels aselection.

- Configurable buttons:

-- Function keys (F1 to F4) perform thetask that you configured with theTD 200 wizard.

-- SHIFT allows the function keys (F5 toF8) to perform the task that youconfigured with the TD 200 wizard

Displaying Information on the TD DeviceThe TD device provides both screens (user-defined menus with associated screens ofinformation) and bit-enabled alarm messages:

- Menu: A menu is a list of items that select a grouping of related screens.

- Screen or alarm: A screen or an alarm displays up to two lines of text that provideinformation for the operator. (Each line can contain up to 20 characters of text and data. Ascreen contains up to 40 characters of text and data. An alarm can contain either 20 or 40characters.)

The textual message of the screen or alarm can convey information for the operator andcan also allow the operator to interact with the S7-200 CPU by changing the embeddedvalue of a variable (such as a set point or limit).

You can configure the TD device to display screens (which are initiated by operator action) andbit-enabled alarms (which are generated by the S7-200 CPU). You can also configure theTD device to display an icon to alert the operator of some event or action required. (Refer toChapter 4 for information about configuring the TD device.)

TipPressing ESC returns you to the previous menu. If there is no activity for one minute (no buttonpressed), the TD device returns to the default display mode.

The operator uses the buttons on the keypad to navigate through the menu or a list of text.Figure 5-3 shows the buttons that an operator could use to navigate from a user menu to thescreens associated with that item in the menu. Figure 5-4 shows how to navigate through thealarms.

Using the TD Device to Edit Variables in the S7-200 CPUA screen or alarm message can contain an embedded variable field that allows an operator torespond by changing the value of the variable. The operator uses the keypad to edit variables:

- Selecting the Screen: The operator uses the UP or DOWN arrows to display the screen thatcontains the variable to be edited. (From a menu, the operator presses ENTER to accessthe group of screens.)

- Navigating to the variable: The operator presses ENTER to navigate to the first editablevariable.

- Changing the value of the variable: Pressing the UP arrow increments (increases) thevalue, and pressing the DOWN arrow decrements (decreases) the value. (Pressing andholding the UP or DOWN arrow accelerates the operation.) Pressing both SHIFT+ENTERresets the variable to 0. Pressing ESC aborts the edit.

- Updating the data in the S7-200 CPU: Pressing ENTER writes the updated value for thevariable to the S7-200 CPU and moves the cursor to the next editable variable on thescreen.


57

Accessing the Menus and ScreensWhen you configured the TD device (as described in Chapter 4), you created the screens andalarms for the TD device. If you configured both alarms and screens, you also designated whichtype of message (screens or the alarms) would be the default display mode for the TD device.After power-up or after a period of inactivity, the TD device shows the default display mode.

In addition to the screens and alarms that you configured, the TD device provides standardfunctions that the operator can access from system-level and pre-defined menus. From the defaultdisplay mode, the operator uses ESC to access the menu hierarchy. The operator then pressesENTER to select the menu item for accessing the other menus or functions. Figure 5-5 shows thehierarchy of menus for these functions. (The menus show all of the functions that are available.For some of the functions to be listed on the menu, you must have enabled the function duringconfiguration. See chapter 4.)

Entering and Releasing a PasswordYou use the TD 200 wizard of STEP 7--Micro/WIN to configure the password for the TD device.Refer to Chapter 4 for information about configuring the TD device. To ensure that anunauthorized user does not have access to the TD device during an interval for the automatictime-out, you can use the Release Password feature.

Certain operations (such as forcing I/O or making a memory cartridge) may also require that theoperator enter the 8-character CPU password for the S7-200 CPU. (You must have enabled theS7-200 CPU for password-protection in order for the TD device to prompt the operator for theCPU password.)

Entering the PasswordIf configured for a password, the TD device prompts the operator to enter the 4-digit passwordbefore allowing the operator to access screens or menus. If the password uses fewer than 4digits, the operator must press ENTER for the unused (remaining) characters.

Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select each digit of the password, pressing ENTER to move to thenext digit.

The TD device provides a time-out feature which automatically restores password protection aftera period of inactivity. If no buttons have been pressed after 2 minutes, the TD device then requiresa password again before allowing an operator to access menus or to edit variables.

Releasing the PasswordIn order to provide additional security for your application, the TD device provides a ReleasePassword command that immediately restores the password-protection. The TD device thenrequires that the operator enter the password before allowing access. The Release Passwordcommand prohibits another person from using the TD device without first entering a password (forexample, before a password entered by an operator times out).

You access the Release Password command from the main menu, as shown in Figure 5-6.

The Release Password is not applicable for the CPUpassword: The TD device releases the CPU passwordas soon as the operator exits the function that requiredthe password.

For example: If the operator entered the CPU passwordin order to force an I/O point in the S7-200 CPU, theTD device releases the CPU password as soon as theoperator exits the Force menu

Viewing the Screens and the AlarmsAs described in Chapter 4, you can configure screens and alarms for the TD device. If youconfigure both alarms and screens, you also designate which set of messages (screens oralarms) are the default display mode for the TD device. The default configuration selects thescreens to be the default display.

After power-up or after a period of inactivity (one minute), the TD device shows the text of thedefault display mode. As shown in Figure 5-7, the operator can switch between the default displaymode and the secondary display mode.

Displaying the AlarmsIf you created both screens and alarms when you configured the TD device, the main menu of theTD device includes a command that allows you to access the secondary (non-default) display.The TD device always returns to the default display mode after a period of inactivity.

As shown in Figure 5-8, the main menu provides aDisplay Alarms command for the default TDconfiguration. If you configured alarms as the defaultdisplay, the main menu lists a Display Screenscommand.

After displaying the alarms, you use the UP and DOWNarrows to scroll through the sequential list of alarms.

Figure 5-8 Displaying the Alarms

TipThe TD 200C allows you to configure a button specifically for displaying alarms.

The TD device displays the two highest priority alarms. The TD device displays an up or downarrow with the alarm to alert the operator that other alarms have been enabled. (The up arrowshows that higher-priority alarms have been enabled, and the down arrow shows thatlower-priority alarms have been enabled.)

After reading a new alarm from the S7-200 CPU, the TD device sorts the alarms again to displaythe highest priority alarms at the top of the list. The TD device determines the priority based on thesequence of the alarms in the parameter block:

- The first alarm that you created has the highest priority.

- The second alarm that you created has the second-highest priority.

- The last alarm that you created has the lowest priority.

TipYou can scroll up and down through the list of enabled messages. However, the TD devicereturns to the highest-priority alarm after a period of inactivity: If you have not pressed a buttonfor 10 seconds while the TD device has displayed the current alarm, then the TD deviceautomatically returns to the highest-priority alarm.

Acknowledging an AlarmIf an alarm requires acknowledgement, the TD device does not remove that alarm until youacknowledge the alarm:

1. Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select the alarm.

2. Press ENTER to acknowledge the alarm.


61

Types of AlarmsWhen you configured the alarms (see Chapter 4), you enabled the following interaction with theoperator:

- Acknowledgement is not required, and editing of variables is not allowed:

The TD device displays the alarm. The alarm can contain variables that are updated at theupdate rate of the TD device, but ENTER has no function because the alarm does notcontain any editable variable. Pressing ESC returns to the main menu. An up or down arrowdisplayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarms have been enabled. Theoperator can use the UP or DOWN arrows to scroll through the other alarms.

The TD device does not reset the alarm bit for this type of alarm. To remove this alarm fromthe TD device, you must include logic in your user program to reset the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is not required, but Editing of variables is required:

The TD device displays the alarm and waits for the operator to edit the value of theembedded variable. If you configured the alarm for automatic editing, the TD device placesthe cursor to the right-most character of the variable. Pressing ESC returns to the mainmenu. An up or down arrow displayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarmshave been enabled. The operator can use the UP or DOWN arrows to scroll through theother alarms.

After modifing the value for the embedded variable, the operator presses ENTER. TheTD device then moves the cursor to the next editable variable. Pressing ENTER for the lasteditable variable of an alarm writes the new values for the variables to the S7-200 CPU.The TD device resets the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is required, but editing of variables is not allowed:

If you configured the alarm to require acknowledgement, the TD device alerts the operatorin the manner that you selected. If the alarm contains a variable, the TD device updates thisvalue at the rate of the TD device. An up or down arrow displayed with the alarm signalsthat higher or lower alarms have been enabled, but the operator must first acknowledge thisalarm before scrolling to another alarm.

When the operator acknowledges the alarm (by pressing ENTER), the TD device sets theacknowledge bit for the alarm and resets the alarm bit.

- Acknowledgement is required, and Editing of variables is also required:

If you configured the alarm to require acknowledgement, the TD device alerts the operatorin the manner that you selected. If the alarm contains a variable, the TD device updates thisvalue at the rate of the TD device. If you configured the alarm for automatic editing, theTD device places the cursor to the right-most character of the variable. An up or down arrowdisplayed with the alarm signals that higher or lower alarms have been enabled, but theoperator must first acknowledge this alarm before scrolling to another alarm.

After modifing the value for the embedded variable, the operator presses ENTER. TheTD device then moves the cursor to the next editable variable. Pressing ENTER for the lasteditable variable of an alarm writes the new values for the variables to the S7-200 CPU.The TD device sets the acknowledge bit for the alarm and resets the alarm bit.


62

Editing a Variable That Is Embedded in an Alarm or a ScreenIf you configured a screen or an alarm to include a variable, you can enter a new value for thevariable:

- Use ENTER to move the cursor to the the variable.

- Use the UP or DOWN arrows to change the value of the variable.

- Use the following buttons to move the cursor to different characters within the variable:

-- TD 200C: LEFT and RIGHT arrows

-- TD 200: SHIFT+UP arrow and SHIFT+DOWN arrow

- ESC reads the value of the variable from the S7-200 CPU and redisplays the value.

- ENTER writes the new value to the S7-200 CPU. (If the alarm contains other variables, thecursor moves to the next variable.)

If the alarm was configured as a numeric string, the cursor skips over any non-numeric charactersin the message. See Chapter 4. After you have edited all of the variables in an alarm, theTD device resets the alarm bit in the S7-200 CPU.

WarningDue to restrictions in the format used to store real (floating-point) numbers in both the S7-200CPU and the TD device, the accuracy of the number is limited to six significant digits. Editing areal number with more than six digits may not change the value of the variable, or may causeother digits within the number to change:

H Changing the least significant (right-most) digit of a real-number variable with more than sixdigits may have no effect. For example, if you try to change the “9” in “1234.56789”, thevalue of the variable does not change.

H Changing the most significant (left-most) digit of a real-number variable with more than sixdigits may cause other (less significant) digits in the variable to change.

Performing Typical or Routine Operator Tasks (Operator Menu)The Operator Menu allows you to perform the following tasks:

- Determining the model and version of the S7-200 CPU (CPU Status)

- Viewing the error messages generated by the S7-200 CPU (CPU Status)

- Setting the time for the TD device (Set Time and Date)

- Selecting a language set for the TD device (Set Language)

Viewing the Status of an S7-200 CPUThe CPU Status command allows you to display the following information:

Setting Time and Date in the S7-200 CPUYou can use the TD device to change the time-of-day settings in the S7-200 CPU. This allows anoperator to easily adjust for time changes.

The TD device does not maintain time and date settings. In order to display the time and datevalues, the TD device reads the current time and date from the S7-200 CPU and displays thesevalues. The operator can then use this screen to edit these values and then write the new timeand date settings back to the S7-200 CPU.

TipThe TD device does not validate the time, date or day of the week values that you enter. Youcan inadvertently write an incorrect date or day of the week to the S7-200 CPU.

To allow an operator to change the time and date settings in the S7-200 CPU:

- You must have enabled (selected) the time-of-day (TOD) option when you configured theTD device with the TD 200 wizard. Refer to Chapter 4.

- The S7-200 CPU must support the TOD clock.

TipIf you configured a password for the TD device, the operator must enter the password beforebeing allowed to set the time and date.

If the TD device was not configured to allow changes tothe time or if the S7-200 CPU does not support theTOD clock, the Set Time and Date command does notappear on the Operator Menu.

After you select the Set Time command, the TD devicereads the current date and time from the S7-200 CPU.

The Time and Date screen displays the followinginformation:

- Date: day--month--year (for Chinese, the date isdisplayed as year--month--day)

- Time

- Day of the week

Setting up the TD DeviceAs shown in Figure 5-13, you use the TD Setup menu to configure various parameters for theTD device, such as network addresses, address of the parameter block (stored in V memory ofthe S7-200 CPU), baud rate, and other communication parameters.

- Setting the network address for the TD device:Use the UP or DOWN arrow to set the networkaddress (default address = 1).

- Setting the CPU address: Use the UP or DOWNarrow to select the network address for theS7-200 CPU (default = 2).

- Setting the address for the parameter block:Designates a V memory location where theparameter block (or an offset to the location of theparameter block) is stored in the S7-200 CPU.Setting the address of the parameter block allowsyou to connect multiple TD devices to a singleS7-200 CPU.

Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select the startingV memory address of the parameter block thatstores the configuration of the TD device.

The address of the parameter block must matchthe address that you configured in theS7-200 CPU (address range: VB0 to VB3200,

- Setting the baud rate for the TD device: choose the baud rate for the TD device. You canchoose either 9.6 kbaud (9600 baud), 19.2 kbaud, or 187.5 kbaud.

Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select the baud rate. The baud rate must match the baudrate of the S7-200 CPU and any other device on the same network.

- Setting the Highest Station: Changes the highest station address for the TD device. Thissetting tells the TD device which network addresses to check when looking for othernetwork master devices. The default highest station address is 31. This means that theTD device checks addresses 0 through 31 when looking for other network masters. Thissetting should only be changed when there are more than 32 master devices on thenetwork.

Use the UP and DOWN arrows to select the highest address on the network (default = 31)

- Setting the Gap Factor: Changes the Gap Factor for the TD device. This setting tells theTD device how often to check for other network master devices. The default setting of 10causes the TD device to check once every 10 messages. A setting of 1 would cause theTD device to check for other masters after every message.

Use the UP and DOWN arrows to select the gap factor between stations (default = 10)

- Set the contrast: You can optimize the display for different viewing angles and lightingconditions by adjusting the contrast of the screen on the TD device. The default contrastvalue is 40, with values ranging from 25 (lighter) to 55 (darker).

Use the UP and DOWN arrows to select the contrast setting for the display area of theTD device (default setting = 40)

TipAt 9600 baud or 19.2 kbaud, the highest station address may need to be increased, eventhough the network does not contain more than 32 masters. Increasing the highest stationaddress allows more time for the masters to transmit messages.


67

Viewing the TD Messages Stored in the S7-200 CPUYou can review all of the TD messages (screens and alarms) that you configured for theTD device within the language set currently selected for the TD device.

The View Messages command allows you to verify thatall of the alarms and screens were correctly stored inthe S7-200 CPU.

The View Messages command does not allow you toedit any values that are displayed in the messages.

Selecting the View Messages command displays all ofthe messages and process values stored in theS7-200 CPU. Use the UP and DOWN arrows to scrollthrough messages stored in the S7-200 CPU.

Forcing the Inputs and Outputs in the S7-200 CPUThe Force I/O menu allows you to force inputs, force outputs, or unforce all inputs and outputs.The Force I/O command is available only if you enabled the force-menu when you configured theTD device with the TD wizard.

CautionTurning off the power to the S7-200 CPU before the force information is written to the permanentmemory in the CPU can cause the S7-200 CPU to experience a failure the next time you turnthe S7-200 CPU on.

To clear the error condition, use the TD device to either unforce all of the I/O points or elserewrite the force information to the S7-200 CPU. Cycling the power to the S7-200 CPU shouldclear the error.

If the S7-200 CPU requires a password before allowingthe I/O to be forced, the TD device prompts theoperator to enter the 8-character CPU password.

The Force I/O command provides the following options:

- Force Input: Allows you to force individual inputson or off, or to turn off the Force function

- Force Output: Allows you to force individualoutputs on or off, or to turn off the Force function

- Unforce All I/O: Allows you to turn off the Forcefunction for all of the forced I/O points

Use the UP or DOWN arrow to select the specific I/Opoint. Pressing ENTER moves the cursor to the Forceoptions. (For a TD 200C, you can also use the RIGHTarrow. For a TD 200, you can use the SHIFT+DOWNarrow.)

Simplified Chinese Character SetThe TD 200 supports the Simplified Chinese character set (GB2312--80) for the People’s Republicof China. The TD 200 uses Microsoft Windows encoding for this character set. The Windowsencoding allows the TD 200 to display the same characters as shown in the STEP 7--Micro/WINTD 200 Wizard when you are using a Chinese emulator or a Chinese version of MicrosoftWindows.

Chinese characters are represented in STEP 7--Micro/WIN by a pair of numbers which representthe row and column positions of the character in the GB2312--80 specification. The TD 200 alsouses a pair of numbers to represent the Chinese character.

Notes for Using the Simplified Chinese Character Set

TipThe Simplified Chinese character set requires a Chinese version of Windows or a Chineseemulator to properly display Chinese characters in the TD 200 wizard. You must start theChinese emulator before you start the STEP 7--Micro/WIN software.

You can display up to 20 single-byte characters per line of your message. Because the characterset for Simplified Chinese are double-byte characters, you can display up to 10 double-bytecharacters per line for a message in Chinese.

Some Latin 1 characters are available from the Simplified Chinese character set. Depending onyour keyboard and/ or emulator, the Latin 1 characters may be available in single-byte format orthey may be double-byte characters like the Simplified Chinese characters. If you use a mixture ofsingle-byte and double-byte characters in a message, remember that the space next to asingle-byte character can only be filled by either another single-byte character or an empty space.

The message editor displays 10 double-byte character places. You can fit any of the followingcombinations into a character place:

- 1 double-byte character

- 2 single-byte characters

- 1 single-byte character and 1 single-byte blank

You cannot fit one single-byte character plus one double-byte character in a character place.

Connecting Multiple Devices on aNetwork

You can connect multiple TD 200s and S7-200 CPUs together on one communication network.The TD 200 devices act as network masters and do not interfere with each other. You candesignate the S7-200 CPUs to be either masters or slaves on the network.

Communicating with Multiple CPUsFigure B-1 shows a typical network with two TD 200s and two S7--200 CPUs. Each TD 200communicates to one of the CPUs. The addresses of each device are noted below the device inthe figure. In this example:

- TD 200 Number 1 is configured to communicate to the S7-200 CPU at address 2 (CPU 1)

- TD 200 Number 2 is configured to communicate to the S7-200 CPU at address 3 (CPU 2)

TipYou can connect multiple TD 200s to a single S7-200 CPU. You can store separate parameterblocks for each TD 200 in different V memory locations in the CPU.

If you do not store separate parameter blocks for each TD 200 that is connected to the CPU,any of these TD 200s can acknowledge the same messages and use function keys to initiateoperations in the CPU.

TipThe display time slows as more TD 200s are added to the network.

Network connectors are available from Siemens. Using these connectors allows you to isolate theCPUs from one another (the 24 VDC), but still allows you to power the TD 200 from the CPU. Seethe SIMATIC S7-200 Programmable Controller System System Manual for more information aboutusing network connectors.

Connecting Multiple Devices on a Network Appendix B

Determining the Distances, Transmission Rate, and CableAs shown in Table B-1, the maximum length of a network segment is determined by two factors:isolation (using an RS-485 repeater) and baud rate.

Isolation is required when you connect devices at different ground potentials. Different groundpotentials can exist when grounds are physically separated by a long distance. Even over shortdistances, load currents of heavy machinery can cause a difference in ground potential.

Table B-1 Maximum Length for a Network Cable

Baud Rate Non-Isolated CPU Port1 CPU Port with Repeater or EM 277

9.6 kbaud to 187.5 kbaud 50 m 1,000 m

1 The maximum distance allowed without using an isolator or repeater is 50 m. You measure this distance fromthe first node to the last node in the segment.

Using Repeaters on the NetworkAn RS-485 repeater provides bias and termination for the network segment. You can use arepeater for the following purposes:

- To increase the length of a network: Adding a repeater to your network allows you to extendthe network another 50 m. If you connect two repeaters with no other nodes in between (asshown in Figure B-2), you can extend the network to the maximum cable length for thebaud rate. You can use up to 9 repeaters in series on a network, but the total length of thenetwork must not exceed 9600 m.

- To add devices to a network: Each segment can have a maximum of 32 devices connectedup to 50 m at 9600 baud. Using a repeater allows you to add another segment (32 devices)to the network.

- To electrically isolate different network segments: Isolating the network improves the qualityof the transmission by separating the network segments which might be at different groundpotentials.

A repeater on your network counts as one of the nodes on a segment, even though it is notassigned a network address.

Selecting the Network CableS7-200 networks use the RS-485 standard on twisted pair cables. Table B-2 lists thespecifications for the network cable. You can connect up to 32 devices on a network segment.

Table B-2 General Specifications for Network Cable

Specifications Description

Cable type Shielded, twisted pair

Loop resistance ±115 Ω/km

Effective capacitance 30 pF/m

Nominal impedance Approximately 135 Ω to 160 Ω (frequency =3 MHz to 20 MHz)

Attenuation 0.9 dB/100 m (frequency=200 kHz)

Cross-sectional core area 0.3 mm2 to 0.5 mm2

Cable diameter 8 mm ±0.5 mm

Biasing and Terminating the Network CableSiemens provides two types of network connectors that you can use to easily connect multipledevices to a network: a standard network connector and a connector that includes a programmingport (which allows you to connect a programming station or an HMI device to the network withoutdisturbing any existing network connections). The programming port connector passes all signals(including the power pins) from the S7-200 through to the programming port, which is especiallyuseful for connecting devices that draw power from the S7-200 (such as a TD 200).

Both connectors have two sets of terminal screws to allow you to attach the incoming andoutgoing network cables. Both connectors also have switches to bias and terminate the networkselectively. Figure B-3 shows typical biasing and termination for the cable connectors.

Building a TD/CPU CableThe TD/CPU cable is used for connecting a display device to an S7-200 CPU. If you do not havea TD/CPU cable, refer to Figures B-4 and B-5 to create your own cable.

Making a Cable That Supplies Power to the TD 200

CautionConnecting the 24 VDC power output (pin 7 of communication port) of multiple S7-200 CPUsmay cause erratic operation of the I/O, which could potentially cause personal injury and/orproperty damage.

The 24 VDC power supply is also the sensor supply for the I/O. Interconnecting the outputpower supplies of multiple CPUs could possibly overload the sensor supply, which could causethe I/O to operate incorrectly.

When networking S7-200 CPUs, connect only the communication lines (pins 3, 5, and 8). Youmust not connect the power output (pin 7).

Figure B-4 shows you the pin-out of TD/CPU cable with power supplied to the TD 200. Use thisoption when you want the TD 200 to receive power from an S7-200 CPU.

CPU Grounding and Circuit Reference Point Guidelines forUsing Isolated Circuits

The following items are CPU grounding and circuit guidelines for using isolated circuits:

- You should identify the reference point (0 voltage reference) for each circuit in theinstallation, and the points at which circuits with possibly different references can connecttogether. Such connections can result in unwanted current flows that can cause logic errorsor can damage circuits. A common cause of different reference potentials is grounds thatare physically separated by long distances. When devices with widely separated groundsare connected with a communication or sensor cable, unexpected currents can flowthrough the circuit created by the cable and the ground. Even over short distances, loadcurrents of heavy machinery can cause differences in ground potential or can directlyinduce unwanted currents by electromagnetic induction. Power supplies that are improperlyreferenced with respect to each other can cause damaging currents to flow between theirassociated circuits.

- When you connect CPUs with different ground potentials to the same PPI network, youshould use an isolated RS-485 repeater.

- S7-200 products include isolation boundaries at certain points to help prevent unwantedcurrent flows in your installation. When you plan your installation, you should considerwhere these isolation boundaries are provided, and where they are not provided. Youshould also consider the isolation boundaries in associated power supplies and otherequipment, and where all associated power supplies have their reference points.

- You should choose your ground reference points and use the isolation boundaries providedto interrupt unneeded circuit loops that could allow unwanted currents to flow. Remember toconsider temporary connections which may introduce a new circuit reference, such as theconnection of a programming device to the CPU.

- When locating grounds, you must also consider safety grounding requirements and theproper operation of protective interrupting devices.

- In most installations, you will have the best noise immunity if you connect the CPU sensorsupply M terminal to ground.

The following descriptions are an introduction to general isolation characteristics of the S7-200family, but some features may be different on specific products. Consult your productspecifications in the appropriate manual for information about which circuits include isolationboundaries and the ratings of the boundaries. Isolation boundaries rated less than 1,500 VAC aredesigned as functional isolation only, and should not be depended on as safety boundaries.

- Logic circuit reference is the same as DC sensor supply M.

- Logic circuit reference is the same as the input power supply M on a CPU with DC powersupply.

- CPU communication ports have the same reference as logic circuit.

- Analog inputs and outputs are not isolated from logic circuit. Analog inputs are fulldifferential to provide low voltage common mode rejection.

- Logic circuit is isolated from ground to 500 VAC.

- DC digital inputs and outputs are isolated from logic circuit to 500 VAC.

- DC digital I/O groups are isolated from each other by 500 VAC.

- Relay outputs are isolated from logic circuit to 1,500 VAC.

- Relay output groups are isolated from each other by 1,500 VAC.

- AC power supply line and neutral are isolated from ground, the logic circuit, and all I/O to1,500 VAC.
